Square-Enix you didn't think this through (alt leveling)

What happens when your game evens out and low level zones are empty?
What happens when hunting log isn't enough to grant my alt classes levels?

I'll tell you what happens... running around as a level 7 Lancer struggling to gain experience because nobody is doing Fates and the Fates don't scale properly for me to solo them.

I'm on a very populated server (Behemoth) and as of right now, Central Shroud and Western LaNoscea are both empty with roughly 6-7 people in them, and nobody is doing fates.

I'm asking you, how do I level? my hunting log alone isn't enough and since I've done every quest on my 50 and nobody is doing fates, what can I do?

you want my suggestion?

1. Scale Fates, if nobody is around I should be able to solo it.
2. Reset Guild Hests and Side Quests when you switch class
3. Add more monsters to each hunting log bracket, or increase EXP gained by 100%.

That's when you do Guildhest's... oh wait 90 minute queues for DPS.

1. No, and it already works that way, you can already solo any that do not involve killing a field boss.
2. Guildhests do not need to be reset, you can do them infinitely, just DF queue. You probably meant levequests.
3. No, there are different monster sets for each class.

If you play the entire storyline on one class, then yes you're not going to have enough EXP to level up another combat class. You will need to do dungeons or guildhests instead of FATE's.

My suggestion is that if you're leveling up a DPS class, don't bother with the DF queues because you will never, ever, be able to do it efficiently. Only DF if you're leveling a healer or a tank, because a healer can't get gold exp in most FATE's unless they have the entire non-field boss FATE to themselves. I've resorted to entering a fate with my level 50 DPS and then changing to my non-DPS class 90 seconds before the fate will end to get the exp on that role, because otherwise I'm only going to get bronze or silver entering as that role.

FATE's don't scale well for healer classes because if you're around 100 other players doing the same fate, the monster is dead before you even finish casting anything but Aero.

Not to mention they don't reset when you swap class.. making guildhests only useful once and once only.

Dungeons give poor experience, not to mention are locked until 15...

If literally the goal is to get 15 then just exp chain stuff a level higher then you and do leves to finish it off + hunting log, takes no time to get that high.

LIES! Dungeons are awesome















































at level 40.

After grinding fates for a while you begin to acknowledge how you actually love questing.

did you know, mobs yield exp too?

did you know, exp chain yields more exp?
